Parent Movement 2.0
Why a pledge?
A pledge launched the first Parent Movement in the 1980s, but we’ve also found this pledge helps parents find a common thread through what they believe about substances and how they want to parent relative to substances.
Today there are so many priorities and so many things we have to parent; and it’s different for every family. Parents can use the common understanding found in the “I’m in” Pledge with their families and among friends.
